CyberStart Assess Q4, Q6

This is the first time trying out CyberStart, and I've completed question 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8 and 9. I'm confused on finding the code in question 4 and I've searched each part of the browser. The animation at the top doesn't give much hints (the circle and square could be one).

I'm also not sure how to get through the spinlock (q6). Any hints or something?

q4 - there's a spelling mistake in the code somewhere. fix it
q6 - there's a script containing functions somewhere. remember each circle is called "one", "two" and "three", not 1, 2, 3.

For 10, I can see all the changes in the code as you roll but not sure what to do with them.

<form class="form" action="/challenge-10/answer" id="calc-form"> copy the "/challenge-10/answer" roll and paste it in the action again

In the console type - decrypt() and put the numbers it gives you and seperate with commas like this decrypt(20,23,5,14,20,25)

for 8 it gives you this function

function validate(username, password, dUser, dPass) {
// Dev note: enhanced security measures!
// The users password in our database is always prefixed with "pass_" for security
if (username === dUser && password === "pass_" + dPass) {
handleLogin(username, password);
} else {
failure();
}
}


in the console it type
dUser
should return like this "dipuser"
dPass
should return like this "EMlawpe"


username is dipuser
and password would be pass_Mlawpe

Yeah Ill start from the beginning so first I typed watermon to see the usage it shows this
imagePart 1
Part 2 It says you need a password in the code I saw this "char* pass = adalkdadkw" So I knew this was the passowrd
image Part 2
Part 3 You could load a config file with -c so I just tried loading -c config which changed the water level so I knew it was something to do with overflow and just put a bunch of numbers there and it worked.
